Did you hear, WE'RE GETTING SNOW TONIGHT. Kate T. South Mississippi

I ran across this link on a blog I read. It's recreations master paintings using spools of thread! Very, very cool. http://www.devorahsperber.com/brooklyn_musuem/index.html -- Lisa Caryl http://www.picturetrails.com/quiltygurl remove the obvious to reply

Man, 2009 is turning out to be a productive year! This is for my niece, who is expecting her first baby in May: http://community.webshots.com/album/570512565URGUFD Woo hoo! TinaR

Only one block was finished this week, Japanese Scrap Quilt #470 in Maggie Malone's 5,500 Quilt Block Designs. It is very pretty but one of the more difficult blocks. The sewn block is one of those "should be seen from a galloping horse" creations. My points are not the best but the block is...

Well, In spite of what all you dear friends said (and what I had tried to do to follow advice) I made every mistake in the book, and then some. Last evening saw me at the neighbour's door, asking if I could borrow a knife, to get, at least, some bread + something (anything I could find!) for...

Ok so I was bored with seeing a zillion patients this morning, covering both my consults and those of a colleague who is on holidays, and I decided to google for teddy bear quilts. I ended up finding this, and fell in...

I use a cut-resistant glove on the non-cutter hand, because I know I can be a klutz. I'm a chemist, so know about the companies that supply us. And so I ordered this from ColeParmer: EW-86289-60 Best® D-Flex� Cut-Resistant Glove, Full-Face Natural Rubber Dotted $10.00 / each (USD)

I'm fond of making quilt tops -- but, I have never finished a quilt. Oh, I came close, a couple of times, but the 'tied' first quilt begged to be undone and made into a 'real' quilt before binding. And the sailboat baby quilt had been straight-line quilted with 'invisible' thread before I read...

I found this ad while perusing Craig's List.......The last line gave me chuckle. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Free older model Singer: this machine works, but was designed very poorly. It has an unusual drop in bobbin, which causes it to skip stitches unless the tension is adjusted...

Hello All! Remember me and my Scuba Red Sea Quilt? Guided by my wife Sue it ended up in our local Quilt show. Well last year I started on another. HMS Daring has been launched and is going to sea for the first time next month on trials. The ship commisioning is 18 months away. After 6 months ...

It's all I could do to stop myself from heading to the local LQS to find more whackable fabric! But...there's always E-Bay. not to mention equilter.com and craftconn.com! ROFL (enabler me!) The Blessed Fiddy, Patroness Saint of the Disorganized LC in Sunny So Cal

I have a huge bag of felt pieces and I'm at a loss of what to do with it? I'd love to use it in my classroom but need some ideas. I can sew or glue or whatever. I think you need to use fabric glue on this as I think regular white glue sort of seeps through and looks bad. Any ideas besides...

Guys, I'm sorry...i replied to a cross posted message without realizing it, and without editing the groups it was going to. This resulted in a nasty reply to my post, and i didn't intend for that to happen. Please forgive me. I'll be much more careful in the future. Thanks for...

I just finished hoovering and Sasha - Siamese sealpoint - came over to me, which is unusual because she usually hides for a while. As I was stroking her, I noticed that her left ear is swollen up. It's huge! It seems to be full of some liquid, but is rock hard all the same. I have no idea what...

Hi, everyone. I have only been quilting for about 6 months. My first attempt at a quilt was for my baby daughter, who is now 10 months old. I had cross stitched 8 blocks of Teddies with stars and moons and wanted to make a quilt out of them. After making the quilt my niece asked me if she could...

I had an interesting conversation yesterday. My uncle is in town visiting. He loves quilts although he does not make them. Last time he was here I gave him a quilt which he has hanging in his stairway out of the sunlight. He said to me. "Your Aunt Kathy gave me a quilt she had made...

Does anyone have EQ5? I do, though I haven't used it much. I would like to download a specific block. I followed the directions, I thought, but when I go to upload it I can't find it. Here's what I want to copy: http://www.blockcentral.com/eq5exchange.shtml Specifically, the "traditional...
